John Ehret High School students were relocated to the gymnasium as a precaution Tuesday afternoon after a gas line leak at the Marrero school. School will dismiss at its regular time, officials said.

Atmos Energy spokesman Karl Weber said the issue was been resolved and that students will be released at their scheduled dismissal.

Circle Construction presumably struck a two-inch gas pipe while working on a drainage project on Patriot Drive, said Weber and the Marrero-Harvey Volunteer Fire Co. No. 1. The students were moved to the gym, and Atmos crews canvassed the campus to ensure the issue was resolved, Weber said.
